FASTENING
Downhill
- Ride with caution
- In case of braking, apply the rear brake fi rst rather than the front
one.
At night
- Consider the fact that the bicycle is less visible to other road
users.
- Make sure there is an independent lighting system and that the
refl ectors are properly mounted.
- Ride as near to the side of the road as possible.
On wet roads
- Take into consideration the decreased grip of the tyres and the
possible reduced visibility.
- Make sure tyres and brake pads are in perfect condition.
- It is absolutely forbidden to use umbrellas or other protective
tools that make riding diffi cult.
- Proceed at a slow speed.
- Keep a greater safety distance from other vehicles.
- Brake well in advance and gradually.
Off-road
- Wear proper clothing.
- Comply with regulative provisions that govern access to paths
and dirt roads.
- Respect pedestrians and private property.
- When riding downhill, brake well in advance gradually.
DANGER / SAFETY NORM:
W hirls, jumps and crashes can damage the frame of your Reparto
Corse bicycle; Bianchi invites you to carefully evaluate the route
and the obstacles that you will be facing, and to dismount from
your bicycle in order to overcome them, if necessary.
BICYCLE DEVICES
Rear derailleur
The rear derailleur governs the ratio between the biker’s pedal stro-
ke and the distance traveled by the bicycle; by moving the chain
from one gear to the next, the rear derailleur makes it possible to
use different ratios in relation to the type of terrain you are riding
on. By changing the gears, you can maintain a constant pedal stro-
ke even when road conditions change, thus making the most of
your physical exertion.
When riding uphill, it is advisable to use short gears that allow you
to pedal with less effort; for downhill or fl at terrains, it is possible to
use longer and harder gears. The ideal pedaling rhythm is in direct
correlation with the indivi-
dual rider’s training and phy-
sical condition. Indicatively,
a medium pace is indicated
by a ratio of 60/90 revolu-
tions per minute. Once you
become familiar with the
function of the rear derail-
leur, it will be easy for you
to understand which gears
are more suitable for you
according to your personal
requirements.
The rear derailleur is operated separately by means of the control
levers, whose operation varies depending on the model. Some Re-
parto Corse models are equipped with an additional front derailleur
that makes it possible to extend the use of the bicycles to virtually
all types of terrains and environmental conditions. For additional
information on the various types of rear derailleur and the different
operating modes, Bianchi invites you to read the specifi c instruc-
tions enclosed.
WARNING / IMPORTANT:
Do not operate the rear derailleur when the bicycle is stopped. It
must be used only while pedaling, applying a reduced and constant
pressure on the pedals. Never turn the pedals in the opposite direc-
tion of the pedal stroke.
W hen the rear derailleur features multiple gears, the following
combinations have to be absolutely avoided: front small gear / rear
small gear and front big gear / rear big gear.
Positioning the seat
Simply get on your bicycle to check the proper position of the seat.
The seat is adjusted correctly when:
- The rider can touch the ground with the tips of both feet.
- The rider’s knee is slightly bent when the pedal is in its lowest posi-
tion. Once the right seat height is established, Bianchi recommends
making sure that the seat post clamp is properly tightened (fi g.1).
To adjust the seat at the best angle, use the clamp on the seat post
(fi g.2), making sure you retighten the fastening screw after fi nding
the right position. In any case, Bianchi recommends never going
beyond the minimum insertion mark indicated on the same seat
post.
DANGER / SAFETY NORM:
Bianchi recommends never withdrawing the seat post beyond the
minimum insertion mark indicated on it.
Once all seat adjustments have been carried out and the relevant
clamps have been tightened, it is important to make sure that the
saddle is fi rmly in place by grabbing it and rotating it sideways. The
saddle should not move, unless this is done very forcefully.
Positioning the handlebar
The entire Bianchi Reparto Corse line is equipped with “A-Head”
system steering; some models of the Reparto Corse range are also
equipped with an adjustable handlebar connection that makes it
possible to change the inclination of the handlebar.
To adjust the steering and the handlebar, use the screws located at
the sides and at the bottom of the relevant connections (fi g. 3).
Due to the importance and complexity of these specifi c components,
Bianchi invites you to contact your specialist Dealer in order to
